Obstructions create a flutter at SCG

SYDNEY: It seems controversy can never be far behind if India are playing Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

The venue of the infamous '2008 monkeygate scandal' was in focus yet again on Sunday during the ODI tri-series match between the two sides, which are becoming synonymous with intense rivalry in international cricket.

After an 'obstructing the field' appeal against David Hussey was turned down during Australia's innings earlier in the day, the run-out of Sachin Tendulkar (14) became quite dramatic during India's chase.
